Outlander: Blood of My Blood is in for some excitement as Ellen (Harriet Slater), Brian (Jamie Roy), Murtagh (Rory Alexander), Jocasta (Sadhbh Malin), and more head to Beltane in the show’s latest episode, “Needfire.”

The festival, which celebrates the coming of summer, is also known as an event where sins are burned away by the needfire, which breeds some risqué behavior — at least, that’s what Jocasta implies to her sister Ellen in an exclusive clip from the episode above. “Perhaps you could offer me your wise counsel. Help keep Malcolm Grant satisfied as a wife,” Ellen says as she rides alongside Jocasta in a carriage on the way to Beltane.

“Well, when I was betrothed, I was nae such an old maid as you, but John’s expectations were clear enough. I was to be doting and obedient, his silent prize to be admired and not touched,” Jocasta reveals to Ellen.
